Family Systems Counselling in Perth, WA

I am dedicated to providing compassionate and person-centered counselling to support you through life's challenges. As your therapist, I prioritize understanding your unique needs, fostering a non-judgmental atmosphere, and working with acceptance and respect at all times. I am trained in the psychodynamic approach, but I believe in tailoring therapy to your individual needs. Drawing from a diverse range of theories and practices, my goal is to create a safe environment where you feel heard and understood. Together, we can build a foundation of trust, allowing you to make lasting and meaningful changes in your life.

As a psychotherapist, I am deeply passionate about supporting individuals and couples on their journey towards emotional well-being and personal growth. I believe that everyone has the innate capacity to heal and thrive, providing a safe and compassionate space for exploration and healing.

Despite the great tools and opportunities that we have access to in the world of today, I fully understand the challenges that we face in an ever-evolving society and try to assist clients in overcoming issues from the past, becoming more comfortable with the present, and creating an exciting adventure for the future. I place significant emphasis on the therapeutic relationship and try to create a therapy space which feels safe, offers room for the client to explore possibilities, and feels unique and tailored to the client's individual needs.

Life can be challenging sometimes and we all need a little help to navigate through difficult times. In life we go through lots of emotions. Many emotions we handle it in our own way however some time some emotions can be triggering and could be very difficult to handle and it might lead us to feel more pain and sorrow, depressed and unmotivated. It starts affecting our mental as well as physical health. It starts affecting relationships and leave self feel void. However if we understand the core issues of the pain we then can learn to deal with our emotions and live peacefully.

Fear of the unknown is very common and is probably why most people are reluctant to start therapy. If you are struggling with feeling overwhelmed, worried for the future or feeling down and depressed then I encourage you to take the step to find a therapist that you click with. Using strategies that we know works is important, but it is also known that the relationship with your therapist is the most important thing in helping you to move forward. I work with many members of the community, and am especially equipped to work with LGBTIQA+ clients. I also have a lot of experience working with trauma.

It can be hard to talk about what's going on for you, whether you're going through a difficult time, struggling to understand yourself, feeling unsure of your path forward, or generally feeling overwhelmed with life. Connecting with someone you don't know can feel daunting, especially if you've had tough experiences in the past. Having someone you trust to keep the most vulnerable parts of you safe can be immensely healing.

If you're dealing with relationship issues, narcissistic abuse or associated trauma, I can help. Has your relationship been feeling like a game but you didn't get a copy of the rulebook? Or has it been like a rollercoaster ride? Are you trying to decide if you should stay or leave but don't know where to draw the line? Perhaps you're fresh out of a break up and need support, or maybe you need clarity to prevent you from returning to a situation which was bad for you? It's not easy to be in any of these situations, especially while you're trying to manage all other aspects of your life. The right support can be invaluable.

As a highly experienced mental health clinician with over 20 years' practice, I understand that people can suffer from anxiety, low motivation and mood changes when life's problems become overwhelming. Life can be challenging at times and tough times can leave us feeling overwhelmed and distressed. It's easier to overcome challenging times with the right support, and therapy can be a good option to help you "get back on track.'. My therapeutic approach is short term, recovery based, and future focused. I will always work with you in partnership, as you set your own personal goals for recovery.
